SNAME Annual: Software Solutions MAINTelligence can now more easily leverage their programs to assist in reducing the costs associated with class inspections." Users of MAINTelligence may apply to DNV for a PMS Implementation Survey where machin- ery components are assessed based on the documented maintenance history contained in MAINTelligence, rather than through mandatory physical inspection. This gives an approved tool for sim- plifying the process of class surveys, planning the maintenance management functions and implementing a predictive maintenance program all in one system and in one database. MAINTelligence can also manage engine room data log- ging requirements, using intrinsically safe handheld computers. Circle 66 on Reader Service Card Emmi Network Launches Shipcontrol.com ShipControl, designed for the manage- ment of shipping companies, shipown- ers, maritime transport and merchant marine, offers a range of applications and flexibility. Shipping companies can control their fleets from the site www.shipcontrol.com through the new positioning system from an Internet- enabled computer. They will obtain in real time the position, course and speed of the vessel represented on an elaborate marine chart. Emmi Network developes customized applications for the different shipping companies as has been done with the Spanish firm Transmediterranea one of the first com- panies to use the tracking system. Circle 70 on Reader Service Card Kongsberg Launches New Simulation Software Kongsberg Maritime launched Polaris 4.4.0, the latest version of its Polaris bridge simulation architecture. The fully scaleable Polaris 4.4.0 software forms the basis of either PC based desktop simulation systems or multi-channel full mission simulators based on real-life bridge consoles and layouts. New com- munication functionality of Polaris 4.4.0 on both desktop and full mission sys- tems includes: Communication system September 2004 (Voice on LAN) - Intercom, VHF, MF/HF, UHF, Inmarsat B and Inmarsat C: VHF - Military VHF channels 39, 90 are implemented in the VHF station: Loran-C - New Man Over Board (MOB), signal strength and circular error probability functions. New or upgraded navigation function- ality includes: Bird's eye view - Lighthouse and fairway are implement- ed as symbols on bird's eye view on the instructor graphics: Navigation Conning - new parameters, barometer, dew point and humidity: Radar overlay on ECDIS - choose which radar slave you want to display radar overlay from: Radar-side lobe - target changes in size and bearing, when this function is activated.

COK / HOST Making software that naval architects love since 1972 Circle 226 on Reader Service Card NAVIGATION IGMDSS Maritime simulators and training concepts The Poseidon Borealis Simulator is a modular system that can be extended from a stand-alone Radar/ ARPA simulator on a single PC to a complete bridge set up with ship manoeuvring levers and 360 degrees visual simulation. Engine room simulator and fishery simulator can be optionally integrated in the bridge simulator set-up. The Poseidon GMDSS Simulator system has for years been the world- leading tool for GMDSS GOC/ROC training. In addition to the IMO STCW'95 com- pliant GMDSS simulator, Poseidon offers comprehensive teaching aids, instructor training and consultancy. The Poseidon GMDSS Simulator is specially designed to run effective Search and Rescue (SAR) exer- cises. OP la - your maritime training partner Poseidon Simulation AS, P. 0.
